    @CuddlyOracle //I would play apex and valorant if they ******* worked but they don't. Nfs and fifa 23 too. I'm not touching pokemon or overwatch. Ever. Pokemon pissed me off and overwatch pissed me off. I hope they both crash and burn.

  • The_Apxche Apxche (@The_Apxche) reported

    @_Vampragon43_ @KVLTFps @AlandreaRogers How are you gonna bash overwatch for seeing an issue and fixing it when paladins doesn’t even do that

  • JnKTechstuff_ Jake K. (@JnKTechstuff_) reported

    @PlayOverwatch is pay to win when you lock a competitive character to level 40 or "buy a battle pass" and the ******* CHARACTER IS BROKEN AS ****. Need a ******* good game to come out so I can stop playing your absolute Overwatch 0.2 garbage.

  • OscarNaranjo100 Oscar Naranjo (@OscarNaranjo100) reported

    @OverwatchLATAM When will you fix those servers? 😤

  • MiloGustafsson Milo Gustafsson (@MiloGustafsson) reported

  • coweygarasji cowey (@coweygarasji) reported

    @KarQGames bro my **** still kicks me from voice chat so i have to do the trick to fix it each and every time i go on overwatch

  • shayminskies shaymin (@shayminskies) reported

    @vexwerewolf I feel like Overwatch’s story sort of tries to twist the race allegory (omnics = minorities) it demonstrates into a weird lib-centrist point of view, like “we’re literally genociding this minority group, but now that they’re trying to fight back, THEY’RE the issue and bad guys”

  • Optim__ Optim (@Optim__) reported

    @FknKitsune @SamitoFPS Overwatch was launched in 2016, the Heroes doing ****** things on this screenshot, were released years later. 6v6 isn't a problem, it's the fact that they did crappy hero design and were too arrogant to "kill" them and so choose to slowing kill the game instead.

  • gav_va Gav VA (@gav_va) reported

    Walks out to the living room to hear my roommates talk abt how horrifically toxic and bigoted Overwatch players have become, only to hop on discord to hear my bf and my friend talking abt the same thing Huh. I think this might be a problem.

  • Nergal88108818 Nergal (@Nergal88108818) reported

    @operagxofficial I've been playing Overwatch lately and I've had issues with controlling my anger. What's a game that can fix this?

  • WandaDimitrescu baylee | barely active (@WandaDimitrescu) reported

    we at 99% about to win comp game, the bar is going down to say victory, server closes due to unexpected error. Just you know, Overwatch is run by an indie company 🙃

  • chaosberrie maddie! ♡ (@chaosberrie) reported

    i am finally using this account and i'm starting by complaining about the fact i had a power outage in the middle of an overwatch game. I HAD SO MANY KILLS AS WIDOW WHY DOES THE WORLD HATE ME

  • NonnApplic mae🤿 (@NonnApplic) reported

    overwatch lag actually makes the game unplayable man i cant even do anything about it

  • steve_leitten steve (@steve_leitten) reported

    @PlayOverwatch @Blizzard_Ent You know for months people are getting pulled into the last 1-5 seconds of games in Overwatch 2 for a defeat, play of the game defeat or just defeat screen no timer. This is sad. Sadder is you’ve had updates, holidays and time to fix this and haven’t.

  • _Flash_Au Flash (@_Flash_Au) reported

    Be Me Works all week wants to sit down on my weekend and try to play some Overwatch 2 casually. gets ******* rekt becomes salty and loses interest. skill issue. I know.

  • wookiecookiee wookiecookie (@wookiecookiee) reported

    Unistalling overwatch 2 Intel the devs fix the broken matchmaking system with more and such #Overwatch2

  • VonClaytonGames VonClayton (@VonClaytonGames) reported

    But recently Ive picked Overwatch back up, just cant stay away. Im not sure if alot of the issues were more on the activision side of things, not sure if that makes a difference at all.

  • c4ntw3ll 𝚌𝚊𝐧𝐭𝚠𝐞𝐥𝐥✶ (@c4ntw3ll) reported

    open beta loading screen. i know issues about the loading frame. but can you guys integrate them into our avatar during match? like the one in overwatch💀i know it's nasty, but the current loading screen with 3d render is... awkward

  • RecantoDaNumi2 Numi the capy🏳️‍⚧️ (@RecantoDaNumi2) reported

    @PlayOverwatch more rights for the ones who payed for overwatch 1, we don't even get the promised PvE, gold coins are too expensive, extremely toxic players on matches there are a lot of problems to be solved, so you guys should take a look at this too

  • JadedVibezPart2 🗿𝙅𝙖𝙮🗿 (@JadedVibezPart2) reported

    Overwatch servers are so **** I was playing Unranked support solo queue carrying for like an hour with no trouble, I then say **** it and click ranked and then OW decided to boot me off in the middle of the first game and then suspends me Why Overwatch why

  • Juuuuuuuno Juno (@Juuuuuuuno) reported

    @not_oasis_ Unlike games like Overwatch or Warcraft, Hogwarts Legacy is not a live-service game. The programmers have been paid and have largely moved onto another company according to stats from Avalanche themselves. The only people making anything from sales will be Rowling and Warner Bros

  • Snowcipher1 David 🧑‍💻 (@Snowcipher1) reported

    I figured it out. I play Overwatch better when I'm playing my own Spotify music over the actual in-game silence/soundtrack. keeps me in the zone. problem is that it's just so chaotic and borderline overstimulating

  • itsMISUTA Misuta (@itsMISUTA) reported

    I can't use my PC right now because it has a weird problem and I'm still looking for a solution. I want to play Overwatch because there is a Double EXP event but I can't. 😭

  • StylizedSFM StylizedSFM (@StylizedSFM) reported

    Alright tough decision time, this animation is basically all about twerking lmao. There is a TON of *** shaking on screen, one problem though. Widowmaker's overwatch 2 skin doesn't have butt bones for me to animate twerking. The only way is to use OW 1 version.Lmk your thoughts

  • brandon31111120 🦖🦎 wasabi🍃🌿 (@brandon31111120) reported

    Overwatch gives me anger issues.

  • metaluden Metaluden (@metaluden) reported

    @Lgbf91 Pretty much, was just a failed attempt on a live service . Destiny , Fortnite did it right . Overwatch 2 is somewhat still bad in balancing and content. But avengers was a bad decision. I can never preorder again .

  • RojotecaCorp Drake Thorne (@RojotecaCorp) reported

    Something changed AGAIN this chapter, i can say that i geninuely have fun playing fortnite again meanwhile i play overwatch, i want to return to do some art for the two games BUT, there's a little problem that it just it bothers me...

  • cumnm3 Cybes (@cumnm3) reported

    Need more overwatch friends this climbing shits broken asf

  • _Vampragon43_ Vampragon43 (@_Vampragon43_) reported

    @The_Apxche @KVLTFps @AlandreaRogers More polish and "less bugs" would be a very valid argument if we were talking about Overwatch a year ago, but we're not. The game is so broken that they have to remove heroes. And again, Paladins' is literally just Overwatch but better so how does Overwatch have a better "state"?

  • FernandoFerna20 Fernando Fernandez (@FernandoFerna20) reported

    want to accept. Getting hooked hasn't been an issue for years. Reworks for overwatch as a whole haven't been good 80% of the time. I've yet to enjoy hanzo,torb as heroes because their reworks took away their identity. Shell of themselves etc. Nerfing roadhog only means that-
